This is one | feature of the government's program | for easing the nation’s business from the pitch of war to the pursuits of peace without convulsing it in the process. In a sense, the program is tentative, because its formulation has just begun. Nevertheless the planning | for peace is giving all government agencies in Washington these days material for systematic thought as the prosecution of war. Industrial reconstruction, next to demobilization of the army, is pro- bably the most important phase of these plans. How to stop the manu- facture of shells, of guns, of army and navy supplies, without stopping the industrial wheels which made them, and to furnish new work for these | wheels, is a problem which agencies of the War Industries Board will be called on to solve. This means that the hundreds of industrial and com- mercial leaders who have been called to Washington will have to continue their services for essential peace work or substitutes for them to be found. Manufacturing plants which now look to the War Industries Board for assistance in obtaining materials and which in turn comply with the force- ful suggestions of the Board, even- tually will call on some government agency to guide them during the pro- cess of facing about toward peace production. The War Industries Board | is the only agency equipped with the | machinery and supplied with the in- task of the war, Industries play a large FOR SALE Eyesight Specialist wnd Manufacturin> \ Optician, !

There are 4,200 men and women regularly in the employ of The Connecticut Company, Every one of them is a public servant. Every one of them is expected to be ready at any time—any hour of the day or night—to give faithful service to the people. Recognizing that changing conditions had brought about in- creased cost of living, The Connecticut Company increased the wages of its employees to such an extent that the annual payroll was made $1,250,000 greater. Motormen and conductors now receive an average of $3.50 a week more than they were paid prior to Novem- ber 1, 1918. T 3 This increase in wages has added to the burdens of The Con- necticut Company, which already was overburdened. Its expenses, all incurred in serving the public, have mounted steadily, and now have soared beyond its income. Service to the public must be maintained at a high standard, and fares must be kept at the lowest possible level. B | and flush off the body's How to keep up the standard of service and keep down the fare and at the same time pay its bills is a problem that causes the Company much concern. THE CONNECTICUT COMPANY bor greater voice in the management of industrial plants, and of extending both labor and trade federations to | promote collective bargaining. They suggest that the government, through the War Finance Corporation, may aid in the conversion of industries | from war to peace footing, reversing the existing priority of war enter- prises. Railroad transportation, in- dustrial production and ocean ship- ping must be co-ordinated and super- vised for a few years after peace comes as they have been during the war, in the opinion of government leaders. Employment agencies, uni- versities and schools, churches and other social organizations must co- operate to facilitate the placing of returned soldiers in the occupations where they are best fitted and most needed. To do all this it is the belief in many continue to function for an indefi- most gowernment agencies ~which have spruny’ up during the war must continue to tuanction for an indefin- nite time afterwuard. These include the War Industries Board, Shipping Board; War Trade Board, Food and Fuel Administrations, War Labor Board and the War Labor Policies Board, numerous divisions of the Council of National Defense, War Fi- nance Corporation, and many other connected agencies. The Railroad Administration has 21 months to live after peace is signed, unless future legislation hould change existing plans for restoration of railroads to private control. The Red Cross, Young Men’s Christian Assoclation, War Camp Community Service, and simi- lar institutions will have big work to perform in conjunction with the gov- ernment long after the war is over.

Owen has a simila tion. administration leaders are inclined to endorse Senator Overman’s proposal. President Wilson has discussed ths questions of internal, as well as intar- national reconstruction, with a few advisors, and it is understood that it was at his suggestion that the Council of Natlonal Defense went to work months ago gathering information from all departments and bureaus concerning their capabilities as peace- time bodies. An extensive biblio- graphy, several chests full of reports and a number of charts, have been gathered together for the use of any agency which may undertake to formulate the government’s recon- struction program. No effort has been made by the council’s officers to sug- gest policies. Thi research work has been done largely by Walter 8. Gif- ford and Grosvenur Clarkson, director and secretary respectively of the council. Mr. Giflord has just returned from Furope with information on tentative reconstruction plans of the allies. All this is only the barest outlin of what government leaders are thinking these days without regard to when the war will end. Have your dollars ready.—advt.
